but president obama, he believes it's the cause of our problems. i hope the president will abandon his obsession with raising taxes. instead of playing politics with medicare, when is the president going to offer his detailed plan to save it? tonight would have been a good time for him to do it. >> yes. instead of attacking capitalism and obsessing about taxes and not offering a medicare plan, why didn't he just go out there last night and say something about medicare? something, what would that sound like? >> on medicare i'm prepared to enact reforms that will achieve the same amount of health care savings by the beginning of the next decade as the reforms proposed by the bipartisan simpson/bowles commission. >> i see the problem. once again rather than responding to actual obama, republicans are stuck responding to the fictional image of obama that they've created, the same boilerplate republican talking points but just with a better backstory. >> i've got the "hardball" strategists to debate that question. democrat steve mcmahon and republican j
